Recovery After Injury
Physical therapy will guide you through the most effective strategies to ensure your recovery after an injury or surgery. Whether it was a sprain/strain, restrictions after coming out of a cast, or limitations from using splints after surgery, a physical therapist is vital in helping you regain full range of motion and strength. After an injury, your muscles weaken rapidly, and prolonged immobilization leads to stiffening of the joints and soft tissues in the elbow, wrist, and hand. With targeted hands-on techniques and exercises, your therapist will help restore your joints' full mobility. In addition, specific exercises are done to rehabilitate your muscles back to pre-injury levels so you can resume your normal range of motion.
